Remelluri, Remelluri Reserva 2009, Rioja, Spain

Remelluri is one of Rioja's iconic producers. Now run by Telmo Rodriguez, Rioja's greatest ambassador and one of Spain's greatest winemakers, the bodega's vineyards all lie together in one space in Rioja Alavesa, tucked up against the Sierra Cantabria. Traditionally they also bought grapes from two neighbouring villages, Labastida and San Vicente, and these were used in the main blend but now these grapes are made into separate blends.

This wine is the flagship of the Remelluri estate, made mainly from Tempranillo, with smaller portions of Garnacha, Graciano, Viura and Malvasía.
